sky blue. sea blue. blue.

it's calming & makes me want to take a nap, which is exactly why i think it would be a perfect color in the bedroom.

i don't know about you, but i tend to spend much more time decorating our living space while the bedroom is left as an afterthought. i suppose it makes a bit of sense as those are the areas that most visitors will see, but we spend so much time in our bedroom that it deserves a little attention too!

we're moving in just a couple of months & i plan to focus just as much attention on the bedroom if not more this time around.

i L-O-V-E the last photo with the subtle horizontal stripes. i think it would be a fantastic addition to any wall, especially a nursery. check out this helpful step-by-step process hgtv has put together on how to paint stripes. anyone try this out at home?
